Am I the only one who thought this game was developed by Germans this whole time? It just feels German. Gordan Freeman is German
>>200225991it occupies the same headspace as slavshit games like stalker for me
>>200226024the environments feel germanthe characters look germanthe graffiti and culture feels germanthe script feels like it was translated from germanthe plot twists feel germanthe weapons feel germanthe engineering and science feels german
>>200225991dumbass
>>200226334
>>200226334elaborate
I think it's a fine game, particularly the second one that is supposed to be more pleb-friendlybut you could be the only one, in this case. when I think of germ games, it's never not something like anno or other kind of simulator, and I thoroughly approve of btw.
yeahit feels kinda autistic
>>200226444half life is a series by autists, for autists
>>200225991Developed by Germanics.
>>200225991If he was german his name would be Freimann
>>200226591The mains designers of the game are Anglo or Bulgarian
>>200226767how horrifying
>>200226767Anglos are the same race
>>200225991The game makes a lot of references to theoretical physics
>>200225991Valve is the walkable cities of game devs
>>200227192what does this even mean
>>200225991>>200226767German Americans are one of the biggest ethnic groups, bigger than Anglo Americans. Maybe the artists were German ancestry.
wasn't it a german that leaked it online?
>>200227310halfte leben zwei
>>200226995What happens in Canada?
>>200227223The main artists are Viktor Antonov, Ted Backman, and Dhabih Eng
>>200225991I don't think it would have been allowed in Germany because the humanoid enemies bleed red blood and they have crazy gore censorship laws in their games, or at least used to
>>200228388iirc in half life they had to change all the enemies to robots in the german version
>>200225991>Gordan Freeman
>>200225991I can't really think of any famous German made games. What are they known for? Any major German developers? I know the memes about "Forklift Operator 2024" but that's about it.
>>200225991The guy who leaked the game is German at least.
>>200228407Anno games.
>>200225991i have fond memories of playing hl2 on christmas morning the year it came out but i know if i revisited it now it'd be wank. it occupies the same "for god's sake leave your memories alone" space as simpsons hit and run for me
>>200227223>German Americans are one of the biggest ethnic groups, bigger than Anglo Americansthat is not fucking true
>>200226334>the environments feel german
>>200228407beamng drive is german
>>200228638i wish there was more brutalist architecture in half life 2
>>200225991it definitely feels very eastern european to mecharacters look very slavic most of them
The setting of Half Life 2 is Europe, possibly Germany or some Nordic country.
>>200226334How many times have you been to Germany then?
>>200227192Truth
>>200230495it's pretty clearly bulgaria/romaniabut the combine forced so much migration that bulgarians/romanians are probably barely present in the region anymore
>>200228597They've updated the engine since it doesn't look the same as in 2004 anymore
>>200225991i loved the hl1 american arizona aesthetic. hl2 felt so boring
>>200231277its in new mexico
>>200230832nigga bulgarians/romanians ARE the combine
>>200231489how incredibly rude and racist. dont insult our benefactors like that.
Made by jews
No you are not an american video game character
>>200229957>characters look very slavic most of themEvery human character in Half-Life 2 aside from Father Grigori is American.
>>200228597Simpsons Hit and Run still holds up but yeah its just a driving game and an awful platformer
>>200231858They intended on adding randomly assigned languages for npcs but ran out of time to do so that's why all the citizens sound American
>>200231598gaben is not a jewjews dont make stuff, they destroy stuff
it's a professionally made by the books game. even the options menu feels mechanical with no gimmicks or anything
>>200232869yeah but it in its simplicity theres a charm, the iconic source menu sound effects and 3d backgrounds (in hl2 and portal) create their own atmosphere. the modern tf2 menu is dogshit compared to the old one, constantly trying to sell you shit and with a million different popups. f2p was a disaster.
>>200231598Nice try Tim xD
>>200225991it portrays perfect german society
>>200225991I am German.
>>200233248the UI really sells you on the game. postal 2 and unreal tournament do it too
>>200228407Crysis is german
>>200232549He carries strong recessive jewish looking genes though
>Gordan Freeman is GermanYes and he is working in CERN
>>200236839cant wait for the resonance cascade #hype
>>200225991You probably got mixed up because of the German dude who hacked them and leaked the beta.
>>200226334>the environments feel germanit's modeled after Ukraine and Serbia>the characters look germanthere are chinks and nigs everywhere.....oh wait. and all of them speak american english, save for some who speak british english.>the graffiti and culture feels germannever been to eastern Europe, huh? it's more vandalism than art, that's how you know it's from the eastern block.>the script feels like it was translated from germanit was written by a Pole if remember correctly>the plot twists feel germanwhat plot twist? that Judith was a snitch and she got redeemed at the end? that's the most generic shit you can write.>the weapons feel germanthere are two german weapons in the game (MP7, USP Match), two american (Python, AT4), one italian (SPAS12) and the rest are fictional. if you count Gregori's Winchester rifle and Alyx's modified 1911, then there are more american guns in the game than german ones.>the engineering and science feels germanCombine architecture is based on eastern euro brutalism with it's steel and glass dominated themes.
>>200232549He looks very Jewish
>>200238900The City 17 was modeled after Riga
